A multitude of stars were out last night in Paris to witness Pharrell’s highly-anticipated debut as creative director at Louis Vuitton men’s. Among them, naturally, was brand ambassador Zendaya, who commanded attention in a dazzling outfit.
The Euphoria actor hit the step-and-repeat before taking her place on the frow, wearing a shimmering ensemble from Louis Vuitton’s Cruise 2024 collection, designed by womenswear creative director Nicolas Ghesquière. The look featured an eye-catching sequin button-up shirt (unbuttoned to the navel), matching flared trousers, a black leather Capucine handbag, and brown patent leather pumps. Enhancing the overall vibe, the star adorned herself with Bulgari jewellery, including gold, diamond and sapphire pieces.
In addition to Z, power couples such as Jay-Z and Beyoncé, as well as A$AP Rocky and Rihanna (who is the face of the designer’s inaugural campaign for the brand, launched a few days prior), were in attendance, joined by notable figures like Lewis Hamilton, Naomi Campbell, and Kim Kardashian. The front row was brimming with personalities, all dressed head-to-toe in the latest LV.
Pharrell took the helm at Louis Vuitton following the passing of Virgil Abloh, and his debut show for spring/summer 2024 took place on top of the Pont Neuf, symbolising a figurative bridge between his hometown of Virginia and his new home in the French capital. Alongside upholding Abloh’s legacy and finding inspiration in pivotal moments from his own life, Pharrell delved into contemporary interpretations of the iconic LV Damier pattern. With a roster of A-list friends and collaborators, we can only anticipate more star-studded affairs orchestrated by the newly appointed creative director—and Zendaya showing her support in yet more striking looks.
